If it happens you need to open a bank account in a Polish bank, please visit one of the branches with your passport. Since each bank may have different regulations for opening accounts for foreigners, please consult the staff about other requirements. Some banks require students to show a confirmation letter and will not open an account if the stay is shorter than 6 months.
